23. he might have been drugged

Oct 2014

he had only been there an hour when he passed out

and when the community covers up the crime, school administrators allow rapists to continue playing football, police look the other way, justice system takes a payoff....

protecting rapists is now systemic!

the lesson is, don't trust anyone, anywhere, and certainly don't expect anyone to help you if you are victimized....and that really sucks!
